A zone, a place full of unfathomable wonders and equally unimaginable threats – a former exclusion zone around the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant. The most dangerous place on Earth became even more mysterious after an unexplained accident in 2006. The place has been overrun by anomalies with their valuable artifacts, hungry mutants, greedy thugs and stalkers looking for new ways to survive and get rich. Play as one of them in S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl! SEARCHINGIn order to survive, a real stalker cannot stop searching. Valuable trophies, equipment, resources, new companions, hidden paths, and unraveling the mysteries of the place all increase your chances of survival. So get ready and head out for a trip to the center of the Zone, a protected area unfriendly to unwanted guests. DANGERThe life of a stalker is a heavy piece of bread. Insidious anomalies ready to get even the most experienced warrior, groups of hungry mutants or stabbed "friends" in the back can put an end to your journey. Be ready to test your skills and cunning and fight for survival in the face of danger. However, also be vigilant when you are alone. Here in the Zone, things rarely turn out to be what they seem to be at first glance. SOLITUDEThe deserted areas of eternal autumn have become the homeland of hundreds of wanderers. For stalkers, however, loneliness is their daily bread – just like facing an invisible threat. Listen carefully, take every step carefully, and trust no one but yourself and the Geiger counter. Only intuition and intuition will allow the stalker to find his way in the Zone.
